Honestly, I kinda didn’t expect it to actually be true. I figured there would be some misdirection or misunderstanding about the dates in question. But it is actually true and actually happening, Prospera turned Eri into Aerial somehow. Literally turned her into a mech that could survive the data storm and the gundam curse, and fully unlock the abilities of the gundams.

It also revealed some larger answers about what Prospera is looking to do. And I guess it seems she wants to turn everyone into a similar form as Eri/Aerial, upload them somehow into the actual data of the universe I guess. Or something similar, and therefore you would have peace because everyone would no longer be fighting over resources and such.

Honestly I really want to learn more about this process and how much Suletta also knows. Suletta has been talking with Eri/Aerial this entire time, and as we see in this episode Eri/Aerial can take complete control and do things that Suletta doesn’t want to. But how much power exactly does Eri/Aerial have, are they free to function as they please. And merely act as a normal gundam by request of Prospera and hiding their true nature? Or can they only act with somebody who is able to assist somewhat via them being in the drivers seat, and contributing somehow.

Other things brought into question this episode is Miorine and how she will contribute to Quiet Zero and Prospera’s plans. And of course how that will change Miorine if she learns the truth behind the project, and how it might effect Suletta and their relationship.

This whole thing can go for a very depressing ending if they want, and I have just no clue where they are going to go with this at all. But man I am really excited to see it go.
